Package: offlineimap
Version: 5.99.4
Severity: important
I just ran offlineimap on my laptop. Before execution, there
were 20 messages in my "nm" folder on the server. I believe
that my local folder was entirely empty. I did have state
info in ~/.offlineimap. I plain forgot that I'd deleted the
local copy of my mailboxes.
After syncing, my nm folder has 4 messages in it locally
and remotely. A similar story for the rest of my folders.
I have a separate backup of my mailbox from an hour or two
ago; I'll also preserve the state of my ~/.offlineimap
post-sync. I should be able to identify mail that arrived
between the backup and the sync.
I'm a bit foggy this evening so I am having trouble thinking
of the best approach for repairing the damage. Can you
recommend an approach for restoring my mailbox?
In terms of a bug report, have you considered a metric
which warns the user (in interactive contexts - heck, maybe
bail out in non-interactive ones) when the sync seems to
involve a large amount of deletions? Perhaps generalizing a
metric is not straightforward...

Description:
offlineimap - IMAP/Maildir synchronization and reader support
Closes: 360365 459985
Changes:
offlineimap (5.99.5) unstable; urgency=low
.
* When a local folder is deleted, but the OfflineIMAP status cache
is not cleared, do not delete all mail in that folder on the
remote. Closes: #459985.
* Apply SSL performance enhancement, working around severe
inefficiencies in Python's imaplib.py. This workaround was lost
in 5.99.0 when the locally-hacked imaplib.py was removed. Thanks
to Aaron Kaplan for help isolating the problem.
* Added special support for GMail. Patch from Riccardo Murri.
* Added option 'f' for syncing only selected folders. Patch from
Riccardo Murri.
* Added option -k for overriding config options. Patch from
Riccardo Murri.
* Fix read-only detection behavior when changing flags. Patch from
Florian Friesdorf.
* Added support for username/password in a netrc file. Patch from
bboisin in OfflineIMAP #14.
* Fix handling of servers that return UIDs in some, but not all,
responses to FETCH. OfflineIMAP bug #22. Patch by pistore.
* Fix typo in manual. Closes: #360365.
* Added Homepage, VCS-* lines to debian/control.
